I had seen a number of comments that twist-up was bad or situational at best and after trying a few fights with it for Magicat's worst shot challenge I was curious how well it worked for other fights. Most fights it's really good with the exception of a few phases and S-ranking bosses with it isn't too bad - other than Grim Matchstick which I feel S-ranking is doable but would take more practice. It also has an EX move that's largely useful and doesn't have an extremely situational use like with Spread.

I definitely didn't care for Twist-Up during Beppi's first phase, Mortimer's final phase, or Saltbaker's final phase. With Ribbly and Croaks S-ranking seems to be dependent on not getting the tiger attack (or definitely not twice).

I included the mini-bosses I didn't fight in King Dice's gauntlet as a standalone hitless addition, although Pirouletta is pretty poorly done.

This was pretty fun to try overall and learned some new tricks from it.
